I apostatize in lonely constructs,
In straight grey walls,
In illuminated branches,
In sad stained thought.
I panic in violent sound,
Unattached but searching for darted eyes
And spasmodic muscles.
I despair in chemical temper,
In loops of resounding
Incertitude.

She speaks words into the phone,
As audible letters.
And, in an instance, paths of dirt
But really skin
Turn to mud and slide, heavy. Unwatching, unknowing, juvenile.
She doesn’t understand her escaped breath.
And her teachers, my pained eyes
Stare aimless.
Object-less arbitrator,
Untaught villain.
She speaks to me.
